This and the business of growing brainmatter and other advances make me feel like, for better or worse, androids are coming. In twenty years people will be marrying them.

For a few years I have said that neuromorphic is specialized general purpose, like GPUs, but with different advantages.

In this preprint I try to put some substance to that claim. There are real theoretical advantages, but they aren't obvious. 🧪🧠🤖 www.arxiv.org/abs/2507.17886

Also, incidentally, neuromorphic computing, which chips having memory and switching on board (memristors) is on its infancy, but promises to use far less power than conventional AI for related tasks.

New preprint (well, very updated). 🤖🧠🧪

We find that an abstract model of neuromodulation lets spiking neural networks perform much better, particularly in challenging noisy environments, using less energy.

Relevant to #neuroscience and #neuromorphic computing.

Thanks to Maryada (@giacomoi.bsky.social lab)! Due to component variability it is hard to set the weights across neuromorphic devices. Using our crosshomeostatic learning rule, that governs all four weight classes, we drove neuromorphic RNNs into balanced E/I regimes.
